Chapter 98 Uncle, Don't Learn
Zhang Qingzhi distributed a cigarette to one of the workers, but everyone didn't drink any water. He greeted Liu Guixin and left. Zhang Qingzhi said, "Clean up and play around to see if there's anything wrong. I'll go back to the unit first."

Liu Guixin agreed, and Zhang Qingzhi left with his fellow workers.

After seeing the fifth son of the Sun family digging soil with the children in the garden, Liu Guixin happily entered the house, found a rag to wipe the kang, and then took off his shoes on the kang to look at the sewing machine.

Sewing machines are heavy items these days, heavier than bicycles.It is completely equivalent to the level of adding a car in the family of later generations.With an industrial ticket of more than 300 yuan, you can buy it if you want to.

The brand-new sewing machine is brown-red from the chassis to the pedals, and the middle of the sewing machine is black plexiglass, shining brightly under the light.

A golden train is printed on the glass, with three large characters on the sign of moving forward.

Liu Guixin stretched out his hand and touched it carefully, he couldn't help laughing, feeling a little excited, like shouting a few times.

"Mom, mom, look." Zhang Xingjun came in with his little hands raised, and the fifth son of the Sun family followed behind him, protecting them all the way.

Zhang Xingjun put his left hand on the edge of the kang, and raised his right hand vigorously. Liu Guixin squatted down to look at his hand: "What is it, son?"

"Bug, bug, feed the chicken, eat."

A white worm more than one centimeter struggled on Zhang Xingjun's finger, and Liu Guixin subconsciously backed away: "Okay, then go feed the chicken."

Zhang Xingjun nodded, turned his head and walked out, the fifth son of the Sun family stepped aside to protect him and went out again.

Liu Guixin said, "Look at him, don't let him put it in his mouth, Xiaoping."

Xiaoping agreed.

After the son tossed about like this, the excitement in his heart calmed down. Liu Guixin touched the sewing machine, opened the case, took out the manual, and pulled out the machine head.With a click, the lower top panel closed, and the shiny black light head stood on top of the chassis.

After tilting his head and looking at it for a while, Liu Guixin sat down and picked up the manual and looked through it carefully.

The sewing machine is still quite complicated, but it doesn't mean that it can be used just by using it. This thing is still dangerous and technical.

Looking at the instruction manual, touching the parts on the sewing machine to get to know them one by one, time passed before I knew it.

"Mom, I'm hungry. Mom, mom." Zhang Xingjun shouted from the door.

Liu Guixin glanced at his watch: "Oh my god, it's too late. Mom forgot, now, don't worry, cook right away." Putting on his shoes, he went to the iron box next to him to get two biscuits and handed them to him. To the son: "Eat two yuan of this first, and mom will cook right away."

Zhang Xingjun looked at the biscuit in Liu Guixin's hand, stepped back in disgust and shook his head: "It's dry. Don't."

Liu Guixin gritted his teeth and made a vicious expression to pinch Zhang Xingjun's face: "You little thing, you still like biscuits."

Zhang Xingjun babbled, laughed and ran back, bumping into Xiaoping: "Run. Mom is crazy."

Xiaoping stretched out his hand to hold Zhang Xingjun's little hand, and the two ran out laughing and laughing. Liu Guixin followed behind with a smile, and went to cook in the pot.

There are no other problems with cooking with coal, except that it is dirty, and the coal stove is not easy to serve.

Liu Guixin opened the sealed coal stove, looked at the fire inside, took the stove hook to dig out the smoke hole, and put the pot on it to add water.

The water needs to be picked up here, and water tanks need to be placed in the house. There is no running water. This is one of the reasons why people are looking forward to going upstairs. Another reason is that the toilet is a public toilet, and the upstairs is in their own house.In this era, the upstairs bungalows are all coal-fired stoves, so there is no difference.

Looking at the water in the tank, it was enough for cooking. Liu Guixin scooped out the rice and washed it out, thinking about what to order.

At the beginning of June, there are not many vegetables in the city, and there are no out-of-season vegetables this year. The surrounding rural areas are eaten, and if they are not produced, they are not. At home, there are potatoes and radishes, and some sauerkraut. Both are standard equipment for poor families at this time, and they are cheap.

Cook the rice, soak some yuba and kelp, soak some fake meat (a soy product, tastes a little meaty), stew kelp with potato sticks, mix yuba with fake meat, and cut some pickles, one meal The meal is settled.It's all fast, and you can eat when the meal is ready.

After stewing the kelp and potato sticks, and mixing bean curd sticks in a basin, Zhang Qingzhi walked in with a lunch box in his pocket.

"It's time for dinner, why are you back late today?" Liu Guixin turned his head and asked while he was busy.

Zhang Qingzhi put the kang table on the kang and came out, and said: "Get a sewing machine, invite someone to have a meal in the cafeteria, you can't make people work for nothing."

Liu Guixin asked, "The ones you helped carry back just now?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "With them, it's mainly Lao Chai. They got the tickets with their help. If you don't have tickets, how can you buy them?"

The fifth son of the Sun family walked in leading Zhang Xingjun, only then did Zhang Qingzhi see his son walking by himself: "Are you able to leave?"

The fifth son of the Sun family said: "He is so lazy, he won't move after a few steps, or he will squat down, and I will hug him when he arrives. I can't hold him."

Liu Guixin said with a smile: "He is young, he just knows how to walk, so he has to take his time."

Zhang Qingzhi picked up Zhang Xingjun and kissed him on the face: "My elder son is really capable, he will go away." Zhang Xingjun hid Zhang Qingzhi's face with his small hand, and stretched out his other small hand to reach the fifth son of the Sun family: "Sister .”

The fifth son of the Sun family rubbed his belly: "I can't hold you, I'm so tired, the meal was wasted just now." This girl was obviously hungry for food.

Liu Guixin smiled and said, "Then have some more, and bring it to the house for me."

The fifth child went over to serve the dishes, and Zhang Qingzhi said, "I'll serve this, you just take the bowls and chopsticks, don't burn them."

Several people entered the house for dinner.The third son of the Sun family opened the door and looked in: "I said I couldn't find anyone, so I ran here to eat again. Xiaoping, you have nothing to eat?"

Liu Guixin said, "Come on, Xiaoling, you can eat something too."

The third child shook her head: "I've eaten, I'm full." She was thin and weak, and she ate little.

Zhang Qingzhi had eaten in the cafeteria, took a few sips of soup, put down his rice bowl, and slapped his forehead: "Oh, I forgot, I even brought food back."

Go to the lunch box pocket and take out two large aluminum lunch boxes, open them and put them on the dining table. Stir-fried pork with green peppers, stewed pork with beans, and some messy leftovers are mixed together.There are also two white flour steamed buns.

Liu Guixin took a bite of meat and put it in Laowu's rice bowl, and then took another bite for his son, asking, "It's all meat, how much did this meal cost?"

Zhang Qingzhi said: "Three yuan and two. I don't eat it often. You should eat more."

Liu Guixin picked up a piece of green pepper and said, "I don't know how to use this machine yet, can someone teach me?"

Zhang Qingzhi said, "I'm looking for it. I'll come tomorrow. He's not free today. I've made an agreement with him. He is the only one in our class who understands that he can earn about ten yuan a month just by doing this."

Liu Guixin said: "So many? Then you should learn too."

Zhang Qingzhi lit a cigarette and said, "It's not that easy. He used to work in a department store, and his master took care of him. Besides, it's hard to open his mouth when it comes to making money."

The third child at the door said: "Uncle, don't learn from me. You will be caught at the police station for stealing money, and you will have to be beaten."

Liu Guixin nodded: "That's right, it's better to be safe, it's pointless to take that risk."

The eldest sister-in-law of the Sun family came over with a pair of trousers: "You guys just ate them? Xiaoping, you're not ashamed, and you ate them again. Auntie, you can mend these trousers. Boss, I don't think they look good. "

Liu Guixin said, "Okay, let it go. Brother hasn't come back yet?"

Mrs. Sun said: "Heng is working overtime again. There are many things in the factory during this time."

Zhang Xingjun held up the small rice bowl: "Mom, I want more."
